Bruce Drennan rant 5-5-10...funniest thing I've ever seen

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Ignorance sure is bliss for some.

Anyway, Good job Bruce. He sufficiently summed up my feelings.

I'm just saying...acting like BA doesn't matter..I know we're in the big bad sabermetrics era but still.

No one with a brain would argue that Victor is as valuable or less valuable as Branyan...for now.

At Catcher, Victor is a great, great player. At first, Victor is an average hitter, average defense and has well below average power for a 1st baseman.

Productivity and value are two different things. I'd rather have Victor than Marson, but I see no need to pine for Victor to play first base. Which is why we should have gotten something for him while we could, before he is strictly just a first baseman and he loses a shit ton of value.

And batting average is solely based upon hitting...using OBP and SLUG gives you a real value of a hitter.

If a hitter is a .300 hitter and only hits singles, is he more valuable than a .275 hitter who is constantly racking up XBH because he has an extra .025 on the other guy?

I agree..i thought you were being sarcastic with your last post lol, my bad.

I don't want to sign Victor just to put him at first obviously. What I DO find funny is he'd probably be better than our 1B we trot out there most years.

That is entirely dependent upon who pans out. If LaPorta or Mills or even Hodges becomes a successful 1st baseman, I will not miss Victor.

Yeah you'd think one of those guys would become good..
 
Whenever LaPorta hits a HR, I will be playing the lottery.

holy shit.. this is the greatest shit ever

edit: there needs to be a major league 4 with drennan being the announcer

Oh my; that would be awesome. I'd pay to watch that movie. Drennan and Sheen on the screen together?

I watched it live. I laughed uncontrollably. The imitation of Branyan swinging was a thing of beauty. The sad thing about it though was that it was the totally perfect imitation.


"Did anybody remind these players making millions or at least making 3 to 400,000, this is the major leagues?"

Soooo true.

He sure did run down the list of deadbeats the Indians have, and was very funny doing it. "WE STINK". :chuckles:
 
This is awesome...epic...words can't describe how awesome this is.
 

The only man that ever gave a shit about Cleveland and winning. When we traded him we traded the heart and sole of the Cleveland Indians. So fucking ridiculous.

Glad Drenan did this. Someone needed to say it.
 
already looking forward to next year
 
Did anyone watch Baseball Tonight just now??

The guys aired parts of the Bruce rant and were cracking up over it! :chuckles: :chuckles:

In order to have heart and soul, you must have talent. The Indians lack talent.
